If I use jbr_jcef as the runtime, can I avoid re-downloading the runtime during startup?
If I use jbr_jcef as the runtime, can I avoid re-downloading the runtime during startup? And if so, what steps should I take to ensure this?
Never tested it but may work if all required binaries are included. It's a bit tricky as the files are platform dependend.
However KCEF does not support this in any form currently.
You could try initializing CEF yourself https://github.com/DatL4g/KCEF/blob/master/kcef/src/main/kotlin/dev/datlag/kcef/step/init/CefInitializer.kt and report back, maybe we can implement such a feature then.
The CEF library can be loaded using implementation("dev.datlag:jcef:2024.01.07.1")
Excuse me, is there a plan for KCEF to support directly running the JBR_JCEF Runtime as mentioned above?
I would like to adjust the constructor of KCEFClient and KCEFBrowser to be public, thereby enabling the initialization of kcef objects using existing jcef examples. If you don't have the time to do this, I can take care of it. Would that be alright?
Sure go ahead, I think making the KCEFClient constructor public is enough as the KCEFBrowser can be created by calling client.createBrowser(CefBrowser)
New release available:
// KCEF
implementation("dev.datlag:kcef:2024.04.20")
// jcef
implementation("dev.datlag:jcef:2024.04.20")
with updated jcef core
Please tell me, is there an example of initializing KCEF with pre-installed JCEF to work with lib KevinnZou/compose-webview-multiplatform? Is it possible? @DatL4g I tried this:
val cefApp = CefApp.getInstance()
KCEF.init(cefApp)
@MrMilkot you're on the right track, you just need to load the binaries first.
Something like this:
https://github.com/DatL4g/KCEF/blob/master/kcef%2Fsrc%2Fmain%2Fkotlin%2Fdev%2Fdatlag%2Fkcef%2FKCEFBuilder.kt#L295-L322
Or wait till compose-webview bumps to the new KCEF version, since it's a new inbuilt feature
